We think wedding video is incredibly important, but then again, we are videographers so we are a bit biased.

Here are a few quotes from real brides about whether video was important to them:

YES, worth EVERY CENT!! I don’t remember much from the ceremony or the day of to be honest, I was so stressed out that it was all a big blur, but thanks to me booking a videographer last minute (like 4 days before), I will be able to watch a video and see every second of my ceremony, as it happened. He also did “best wishes to the bride and groom” interviews with guests at the reception, which I am very curious to see as people were getting quite tipsy towards the end (or so I have heard, lol).

If you can fit it into your budget, I think a video is totally worth it. I’ve been married for nineteen years (next week!) and we still watch our video every anniversary. It has become a fun family tradition. My teenagers LOVE laughing at the styles/music from “way back then”, and I am so glad to have video of all the loved ones that we’ve lost in recent years (our grandparents, our dads, etc.)

If you can swing it I would highly recommend getting one. I have watched mine over and over and over again and I am so glad to have it. Sure photos are important, but there is something about watching me cry through our vows, watching our best man make the whole crowd laugh with his speech and seeing me twirl around with my dad during our father/daughter dance that brings back all the emotions of the day. You just can’t get that from a photograph!

The only regret I have about our wedding is not having a videographer. The day goes by so quickly — you really miss so much of it. I look back now and wish I would have spent the money for it.
